Id be suprised if you got them out your self with out brakeing them especially the rear one!. But there not hard to remove if you know what your doing and have the right type of cut out wire for removing glass without brakeing it! Is the car not insured fully comp if so just get new ones as the cost of your x/s will be less then paying for someone or a glass company to remove and refit them for you!
we used one of these when we were breaking the XR4x4 and managed ok. just make sure you have all the bonding cut through the whole way around before you push the windscreen. Try to have someone with you putting pressure on the glass while you do the cutting. It can be done, it just isnt eassy

Comeing from someone who worked for autoglass for 8 years the last thing someone who has never cut a bit of glass out before wonts to do is try and save a sierra front and rear screen with a kent knife! it will end in tears
